Usage: ß-pinene is mainly used as a starting material for the production of various terpene synthetic perfumes. It is used in the manufacture of citral, citronellol, hydroxycitronellal, geraniol, linalool, ionone, methylionone, Menthol and other synthetic spices. Β-pinene is the product of turpentine fractionation, it is mainly used for the production of spices, or synthesis of β-pinene resin and vitamin E, one of the important raw materials. Purified β-pinene can be used for the deployment of flavor and perfume for other industrial products.
